TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to a method for preparing a silicon nanocomposite dispersion and an anode preparation, and a lithium secondary battery using the same, wherein a silicon carbide is bonded to at least one region using a plasma, and a carbon layer-coated silicon nanoparticle is employed.

BACKGROUND ART

As an industrial trend is fast changing to an IT industry, an environment friendly energy industry and an electric vehicle industry, the demand for a lithium secondary battery as a power device is greatly increasing. Moreover, as an electronic device becomes compact-sized, the development on a high output and high energy density active substance, which may substitute a conventional electrode material of a lithium secondary battery, is widely underway.

In case of an anode, a theoretical capacity of graphite used for most of commercial lithium secondary batteries is about 372 mAh/g, and an inter-layer spreading speed of lithium is slow, for which a high speed charging and discharging are limited. A silicon composite anode material is gaining a great attention, which may be used to resolve the aforementioned problem and have been as an active substance for the past 20 years, wherein the theoretical capacity thereof is about 4200 mAh/g. In case of a silicon-graphite composite anode material, the development thereon is intensively underway in the related industry for the sake of an actual commercialization; however there still is a limit when competing with a conventional graphite in terms of its manufacturing process cost even though a good energy density and an enhanced charging and discharging service life.

In order to resolve a mechanical damage to an electrode and a fast service life decrease problem when using a silicon, which occur due to a volume expansion and contraction as it is repeatedly charged and discharged, like most of metallic substances which are electrically and chemically alloyed with lithium, it needs to increase performance through a nano-sized particle preparation, a nano-structural configuration, a nano-composite configuration and a complexation with a lithium activation/deactivation hetero-material.

Most of the researches focused on the preparation of a nano-sized silicon anode are being carried out, mainly, based on a mechanical crushing and a complexation, a vapor synthesizing method, a solution-based chemical synthesizing method, etc. Good results on the characteristic of a secondary battery anode are being reported; however there still is a problem in the way that a complicated process involved in a synthesis, a high material cost, an input of impurities, a waste thing treatment cost, an oxide production which is inevitably entailed during a synthesizing process, which makes hard to actually use it as a material for commercialization.

The high energy plasma technology of an electric explosion is referred to a massive synthesis technology of powder, and it has been developed for a long time. In recent years, an in-liquid electric explosion technology with respect to a semiconductor material has been developed (an application number 10-2008-0126028), which shows that a silicon may electrically explode in liquid; however the silicon is oxidized into SiO₂ in an aqueous solution, for which the silicon is not appropriate as an anode active substance for a lithium secondary battery.

BEST MODES FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

Before the descriptions of the present invention, it should be understood that the terms used throughout the specification are meant to describe a specific embodiment, not meant to limit the scope of the present invention which is limited by only the claims. All technical terms and science terms used throughout the specification should be interpreted as having the same meanings as a person having ordinary skill in the art understands.

Throughout the specification and claims, unless otherwise stated the terms(comprise, comprises, comprising) mean “including a thing mentioned before, a step or a thing of a group and a step”, not used to exclude any of a predetermined thing, a step or a thing of a group or a step of a group.

Meanwhile, unless it is stated to the contrary, various embodiments of the present invention may be combined with other embodiments. In particular, a predetermined feature which is considered as being preferred or advantageous, may be combined with a predetermined feature or features. The embodiments and effects of the present invention will be described.

A method for preparing a silicon nanocomposite and a dispersion for an anode active substance.

The present invention is referred to a silicon nanocomposite for an anode active substance wherein a silicon carbine is combined with at least one region of a silicon nanoparticle surface or a carbon layer is employed, and a method for preparing a silicon nanocomposite dispersion using a plasma in an organic solvent.

A silicon nanoparticle may be obtained from a silicon material, and an average size thereof is 50˜300 nm in diameter. If the size is less than 50 nm, a silicon carbine may be easily made due to a strong activation of a silicon (Si) nanoparticle, for which it may not be used as a battery active substance, and if the size is over 300 nm, an expansion ratio may increase during a charging and discharging of a secondary battery, for which it is not appropriate for an actual use. It is preferred that the size thereof is 100 to 200 nm.

The silicon carbine bonding or carbon layer may be obtained from a silicon material and an organic solvent. The thickness of a silicon carbine bonding is 0.1˜0.5 nm. If the thickness of the silicon carbine bonding is less than 0.1 nm, it is hard to obtain a strength strong enough to inhibit the expansion from a charging and discharging, and if the thickness thereof is over 0.5 nm, a charging or discharging may be limited due to a strong strength. For this reason, 0.2 to 0.3 nm is preferred. The thickness of a carbon layer is 3˜15 nm. The silicon nanoparticle formation and the silicon carbine bonding or the carbon layer may become a plasma state due to a high voltage pulse current in the organic solvent and may finally form a silicon nanoparticle and at the same time may form a silicon carbine bonding or a carbon layer. The silicon carbine bonding has a function to reduce the anode expansion as the lithium secondary battery is repeatedly charged or discharged, and the carbon layer has a function to prevent the oxidation of a silicon nanoparticle.

In the silicon nanocomposite, a silicon carbine bonding may be formed at one or more than one region of the silicon nanoparticle surface, and the surface area where the silicon carbide bonding is formed, as compared to the whole surface area of the silicon nanoparticle is 10˜50%, and preferably 15˜30%. If it is less than 10%, the effect of lowering an anode expansion ratio may be very low, and if it is over 50%, the input of the lithium ion may be interrupted, thus lowering the efficiency of the lithium secondary battery. The carbon layer may be formed with 3˜15 nm on the surface of the silicon nanoparticle or the silicon carbide bonding.

The method for preparing a silicon nanocomposite dispersion will be described in detail. The method for preparing a silicon nanocomposite dispersion may include, but is not limited to, (a) connecting a silicon material between a first electrode and a second electrode of a plasma generator in an organic solvent, and (b) supplying the voltage of 5˜20 kV to the first electrode and the second electrode, wherein the step (b) may include (b-1) forming the silicon material with a silicon nanoparticle, and (b-2) forming a silicon carbide bonding or a carbon layer on at least one region of the surface of the silicon nanoparticle.

The parts by weight of the silicon material with respect to 100 parts by weight of the organic solvent is 1-20 [1 wt %˜20 wt %]. If it is less than 1, a problem may occur in a yield. If it is over 20, a problem may occur, for example, a collision and an impact due to an interference with the previously produced particles owing to an increased density in a reactor, for which a surface damage and an increase fine particle may increase. More preferably, it is 3˜7 parts by weight.

The organic solvent may include one or more of alcohols and material for mixing and may further include a dispersion agent, a surfactant and a carbon precursor. If a polyvinylpyrrolidone is added, a coagulation and precipitation of a prepared silicon nanocomposite are available. The polyvinylpyrrolidone may be added 0.01˜1.0 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of the organic solvent, and the addition by 0.01˜0.7 parts by weight is preferred, but it is not limited thereto. FIG. 1 shows a disperse stability of a dispersion (OPVP) containing a polyvinylpyrrolidone and a dispersion (NPVP) which does not contains the same. In case of the dispersion not containing the polyvinylpyrrolidone, a silicon nanocomposite was isolated after 24 hours, and in case of the dispersion containing the polyvinylpyrrolidone, it was confirmed that the silicon nanocomposite was evenly dispersed after 24 hours. If manufactured in the organic solvent, it is possible to prevent an over oxidation into SiO₂, which is different from the manufacturing in an organic solvent.

The silicon material is referred to a material containing an inorganic substance which has been processed in the form of a wire or a rod. The inorganic material may include one or more than one selected from a group consisting of a silicon, a silicon powder, a metallic mixed powder of a metal different from the silicon, a silicon inorganic mixture, a silicon alloy, a silicon wafer, and a waste slurry or a silicon inorganic mixture produced from a silicon process.

The plasma generator is configured to transfer the voltage of 5˜20 kV to a silicon material through the electrodes and organic solvent in the chamber. More specifically, an electric energy will be charged to a capacitor which is referred to a high voltage charger, and upon an electrode switch being connected, the discharging is started, and the silicon material will be heated and turn into a plasma state, after which a silicon nanoparticle can be finally produced. The increase in a resistivity due to an increased temperature of the silicon material may contribute to spatially concentrating an energy consumption at the portion of a silicon material, thus producing a silicon nanoparticle. At the same time, a silicon carbide bonding and a carbon layer may be formed through a vaporization and condensation due to the instant generation of plasma and a resistive heating, and a silicon nanocomposite dispersion containing the same can be prepared. If the plasma power is less than 5 kV, a nanoparticle formation may be hard, and if it is over 20 kV, the nanoparticles of less than 50 nm may be mass-produced, so a silicon nanocomposite produced as the silicon of a high activity meets a carbon source may be turned into SiC a lot, for which it is not effective as an anode active substance.

As the thusly prepared silicon material is loaded, and the charging and discharging are repeatedly carried out, a silicon nanocomposite dispersion containing the particles of tens to thousands of grams can be prepared.

According to a method for preparing a silicon nanocomposite dispersion, a particle powder having an even granule can be obtained, and the process is simplified, and other chemical agents are not necessary except for the organic solvent and the dispersing agent, for which the process of the present invention is referred to a process producing less by-products and wastes. Since a vaporization and a plasma generation and extinction occur within tens of micro seconds, an actually supplied energy may be only 2˜5 times of the vaporization energy of the silicon despite of an initial high voltage and an instant large current, which makes it possible to greatly reduce the energy consumption when generating particles, and a mass production can be available at a lower cost.

In the silicon nanocomposite dispersion prepared by the preparation method of the present invention, since the particles are dispersed in the organic solvent, which allows for an easier use, and since they are not discharged into the air, the preparation method of the present invention is environmentally friendly, and the environment and human body are less exposed to harmful environments.

A method for preparing a silicon nanocomposite powder for an anode active substance.

This method is referred to a method for preparing a silicon nanocomposite powder for an anode active substance in such a way to isolate a silicon nanocomposite dispersed in a silicon nanocomposite prepared by the present invention.

The lithium secondary battery using an anode material according to the present invention employs as an anode active material the silicon carbide bonding and the carbon-coated silicon nanocomposite, thus inhibiting an anode expansion, by which it is possible to provide a specific capacity of 1400 mAh/g which is higher than 800 mAh/g of a specific capacity of the lithium secondary battery made of an anode active material prepared by the conventional preparing method of the Korean patent registration number 10-1142534. In the present invention, the expansion ratio of the silicon may be inhibited within 10˜50%, so it is possible to provide a high capacity and high efficiency lithium secondary battery wherein the silicon anode active material is able to account for 5˜80% as compared to the conventional technology wherein the anode active material can be added within 3˜5%.

The anode may be prepared in such a way that an anode material—mixed solution prepared by mixing an anode material in a solvent, for example, a n-methyl pyrrolidone (NMP) is coated on an anode current collector and is dried, and is subjected to a rolling work.

The cathode current collector is able to enhance the bonding force of an anode active substance by forming small protrusions on the surface thereof. It may be implemented in various forms, for example, a film, a sheet, a foil, a net, a porous body, a foamed body, a nonwoven cloth, etc.
